For this sketchbook drawing, I got the inspiration from a music video of one of my favorite songs from the past. In one part the song the singer puts her hands in the shape of a heart like this, and I really wanted to recreate the image. So, I took a picture of my hands in this pose and drew it from the picture. I felt that this drawing follows the principle of proportion/scale the most, because each part of the fingers and the hand need to be in proportion with ach othr or the drawing doesn't look atomically correct. Also, this drawing uses light and shade, and rendering of form to put the image together as a whole.
1: The principle this photo investigates is proportion. It's reflected in the composition because there are two of the same buildings but the angle this picture is taken, makes the second building smaller.
2: The aspect this photo visually strikes is the angle.
